Due to the Covid-19 social restrictions, it is not known when the next Town Council meeting will be able to be held.
The Town Council are currently using a delegation scheme whereby essential business which normally requires agreement at a Council meeting, can be authorised by the Clerk with written agreement of Councillors, this will allow such things as invoices to be paid and essential maintenance to be arranged, responses to be submitted for planning applications, and any other appropriate business which is considered to be essential. All business conducted under this delegation will be included in a report to the Council when they are able to hold their next public meeting, and therefore minuted accordingly.
